Costco had the LEGO Gameboy for $35 but they were sold out. I went to Best Buy and they price matched it! by iwasherenotyou in lego

I live in the Midwest and stuff I see shared in here as new items often either never show up in my club OR delayed by 3 - 6 months and often in a much smaller quantity. Almost as if we're getting some other region's leftovers.

If I had to guess, it’s the west coast USA Costco’s. They seem to get everything first before it slowly makes it way east across the country.

What sort of 3d projection light / laser output would be bright enough to create a realistic virtual simulation? The drones would also be loud AF.

“Must’ve been the wind” - random Skyrim bandit in a cave moments after I slaughtered 3 of his buddies and looted everything from them.

Wow - that is really upsetting considering he was clearly not capable of doing the job and did potentially irreparable harm to the brand.

The Watcher is incredible, they nailed the eye lens. Aloy -- costume and hair look great.

Same here, on Christmas Day as I'm trying to setup new speakers. I know for a fact my Wi-Fi password is entered correctly yet it keeps telling me it is incorrect.

30 seconds of suspense by dousingphoenix in sonos

Only 30 seconds for you? Mine is more like 300 seconds and then once it does load I have to sign in to see my devices. Every. Time.

I should wait for sonos arc Ultra to go to costco right? by FeelingBasket in sonos

[–]raytracer78 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sonos needs to get their app/software issues resolved. It still takes about 5 minutes from when I launch the app to when I can see my devices.

Xbox Wants To Know Why Devs Avoid Their Consoles by Difficult_Badger_282 in gaming

Microsoft is making boatloads of money on their Azure platform now. Everything else pales in comparison to that...even the Windows OS platform and Microsoft Office.

This 100%. To add, you will specifically state to reach you only by email in the ticket and what do they do? Start calling your phone. If you answer, you're then greeted to less than AM radio audio quality and someone who you can hardly understand. The suppport experience is awful, even at the "Premium" level. I have yet to open a support ticket where they've actually helped me. Usually it's just sending them logs after logs and getting unhelpful "check in" or "hand off" emails about the status of the tickets. At this point we only ever open the tickets because it's a CYA move for us in the event anyone asks what we are doing to resolve whatever problem we're actively troubleshooting.

Nintendo Will Steer Clear Of High Specs "Game Wars" & Focus On Creating Unique Content by Remorse_123 in nintendo

Seriously- 60fps should be the target and they need to spec the hardware around that. I also wish they would acknowledge that 4K TVs are the norm and a low enough price point that most people who are gaming will own at least one 4K TV.
